Chapter Seven

Anthony's POV

I was worried. This was the third time my sister's been attacked. Most likely from the same damn ghost.

I looked at her. She was sleeping peacefully on the couch, completely forgetting about the attack. How she got over these things, I'll never know. Nor did I want to for that matter. Not that I was glad my sister was getting hurt and not me, but I just didn't want to know what she knows. To know what she sees, I think I would loose my sanity.

I sighed, opening the book that she threw, to the page she was just on. I continued reading from where I left off. After about on hour or so, my sister started waking.

"Hey." I said softly in to her ear.

"Hey." she answered, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.

"Are you feeling better?"

"Yeah, a lot better. Thanks."

I smiled at her, nodding. I helped her off the couch and we walked in to the kitchen. From the smells of it, someone was making us pizza. Good thing too, I was starving.

We saw Mom first when we came in.

"Lizzy! How are you feeling, Honey?" she asked, running over to her.

"I'm fine, Mom; just a bump. Be glad I'm a klutz like you, or the school would ask questions."

"I know, Honey. And we can't exactly tell them 'Oh, my daughter gets attacked by ghosts all the time. It's perfectly normal for her to have bruises.'"

"Yeah, that's a one way ticket to the nut house."

Liz regretted her words right away. She looked at Auntie Alice, looking for any signs of discomfort. From her face, there was none. And no doubt Liz was digging through her head.

"Sorry, Auntie Alice." she said.

"It's okay, dear. Happens all the time."

"Still, THEY were the crazy ones. Not you."

Auntie Alice smiled at her. "I know. And they won't soon forget it."

We all laughed at that. Somehow, Alice always found the humor in EVERYTHING. I loved that about my family, they would always find the humor in something and everything.

Liz and I just finished eating before everyone in the house went rigid. I looked at my sister; she was looking back at me with a confused look. We wondered through our family's thoughts, even our mother's. They were all scared and nervous.

Mom was shaking. "Edward, what—"

"I don't know, but they aren't going to leave before seeing us."

Mom started shaking more, then Dad wrapped his arms around her.

"Who's The Volturi?" asked Liz. From the looks our family gave her, she must have done some deep digging.

"The Volturi…is a very powerful coven of vampires. We met them before, when that thing with our father and mother happened." answered Grandpa.

"You mean with Dad left." I said.

"Yes, then they found out about your mother. And found out that she knew what we were. They said she either needed to be changed or they'd kill her."

Liz growled. "They aren't nice people." she stated.

"No, they aren't." answered Auntie Alice.

"But why would they want to see us? To make sure Mom was changed?" I asked.

"Mostly likely. But, we don't know what they will say about you two." said Grandma.

Liz smiled. "Well, we'll give them something to say." I smiled; I knew what my sister meant.

"No! Please no! Don't let them know what you two can do!" Our mother said, worry was written all over her face.

"Fine, but if they started ANYTHING…" my sister warned. My mother sighed and nodded.

"Only if…"she replied.

It was only fifteen minutes later that my family went on the defense. I was going to ask if they were here, but the knock on the door answered my question.

Grandpa went and answered it.

"Aro, good too see you." he lied.

"Carlisle! How good it is to see you!"

I saw Mom get closer to Dad; she was really worried.

"Come on in." Grandpa said. I moved slightly closer to my sister. I didn't like these people, and I only saw one so far.

Other members followed in behind Aro, which we later found out to be Felix, Demetri, Jane, Alec, Marcus, Caius, and Heidi. I tried not to look at their eyes, they were red.

I felt Liz stiffen beside me, she was ready to fight already; and they just got here! After they were all settled, Grandpa spoke.

"So, what brings you here, Aro?"

"Oh, Carlisle! You must know. We're here to see if Bella was changed!"

"Well, as you can see, she was." Grandpa said, gesturing to Mom. Dad had his arms wrapped around her tightly; Mom was staring at me and Liz. She was worried for us.

"Wonderful! Simply wonderful!" Aro looked over and me and my sister then did a double take. I had to suppress a snicker; his expression was priceless.

"And who might they be, Carlisle?"

Grandpa hesitated before answering. "They're…Edward's and Bella's children."

Aro's mouth dropped open, along with the other members. They weren't expecting that.

"They're…children?" he asked, slightly breathless. I was fighting the urge to laugh.

"Yes, my children." Dad answered. He didn't sound, or look, happy.

"Children…"Aro whispered.

"How?!" demanded Jane. She looked very angry.

"The same way humans have children, how else?" answered Uncle Emmett. Grandpa shot him a look that made him shut up.

Jane shot him a look. All of a sudden, Uncle Emmett was on the ground, screaming and clutching his head. Auntie Rose was at his side in a blink of an eye.

"Emmett! Emmett!" she screamed. Grandma had a frightened look on her face. Grandpa looked at Jane.

"Stop it! Please, stop!"

Jane just smiled, and Uncle Emmett's screaming increased.

Everything after that was a blur.

I heard Liz scream, rather roar, and saw her jump from the couch and on to Jane. Uncle Emmett's screaming stopped.

Liz was snarling, and tearing at Jane's face. Jane was screaming, covering her face with her hands.

"Lizzy! Stop!" screamed my mother. Liz wouldn't listen, Jane hurt one of our family members and she wasn't going to stop.

Liz kept tearing at Jane, then, the one named Alec, came up from behind Liz, and tore her off, sending her flying out the window.

All I heard was a crash before I was on Alec. I tore at him, tearing up the skin on his bear arms. He fought me back, growling and ripping at me. He scratched at my face, leaving four marks on it. I screamed. And that's what set her off.

Liz came flying back through the window, her eyes blacker than coal. She saw what Alec did, and was on him in an instant. She tore at him, his eyes, his face, his neck. There was nothing but bright red scratches on him. Jane got up from the floor, running to Alec, who was laying on the floor, unmoving.

I pulled Liz back from him, I didn't want Jane to hurt her. I stood infront of my sister, just in case.

Jane looked at Alec, calling his name. But I knew, I knew there was no point. Liz had killed him.

Jane placed Alec's head down carefully. She stood slowly, her shoulders shaking.

"You killed him." she said, her voice was shaking. "You killed him!" she turned and her eyes were black. "WHY?!" she screamed.

Liz answered. "Hurt my brother, you get killed." her voice was hostel.

Jane shrieked, and pounced on my sister. He clawed at her face, trying to tear her apart. I pulled her off Liz, throwing her against the wall.

"He's not dead! If he was, he would be nothing but dismembered body parts and ashes!" I screamed at her.

I was angry. Never attack my sister.

Jane was about to attack again before Aro stepped in the middle.

"Stop it! There is no need for this! Jane, you should've stopped with Emmett. You brought it on yourself!"

"But.." she started.

"No. Be quiet."

Jane didn't say another word.

As I said, Alec wasn't dead, just almost. He stured, making Jane run to his side. My family was wide-eyed and staring at me and my sister. They knew what would happen if anyone hurt the other twin. The other would attack.

"That was some great fighting." said Aro, stepping towards us. My sister and I growled, letting him know to stay away. He stepped back, his eyes wide.

"Why, what's wrong, children? I won't hurt you." He stepped closer to Liz, making me jump in front of her, snapping my teeth at him. He jumped back, falling to the ground.

"So angry…" he whispered.

"Only if you hurt the other." answered Grandpa. "They are very protective of the other; and the family."

Aro nodded, "That's why she attacked Jane…"

"Yes."

Aro got up from the floor, turning to Grandpa, his eyes never looking away from my sister and me.

"How strong are they?" he asked. Grandpa shrugged.

"We don't know yet."

Aro smiled.

"NO!!" screamed Dad.

"Attack them." Aro said, the other members of the Volturi stepped forward, I crouched beside Liz, she growled, crouching next to me.

Next thing I know, there was snarling and fury's of white skin everywhere.
